Premiere: 2010 Size: 50ml (1.7oz) Gender: Men and Women Notes: Turkish rose, oud, saffron, cardamom.
A strikingly lovely rose made all the more enticing by a drop of darkness. In the opening the rose is a delicate bud with a bit of green, but on the skin it opens up like a fine wine β rich and luscious with a deep, plummy sweetness. The oud is definitely present, but it doesn't feel like a separate entity. It's as if the rose has been infused with oud β its stem has been placed in the oil and it has translated the mysterious stuff through its petals, transforming itself into a rose of unusual moodiness and intrigue. The senses are teased with veils of smoke, traces of leather, hints of wood β passing shadows that make the luminous bloom glow more intensely by contrast. Created by the very talented Calice Becker, this is lush, feminine and exquisitely beautiful.
